The TP-Link Omada SG5428XMPP 24-Port Gigabit Managed PoE++ Switch delivers a 500W PoE budget, four 10G SFP+ slots, Lite Layer 3 routing and physical stacking for scalable business networking.

Designed for small and medium-sized businesses, enterprise access networks and service providers, the SG5428XMPP combines high-density Gigabit connectivity with advanced security, efficient Power over Ethernet and flexible network management.

Featuring 8× PoE++ ports delivering up to 90W each and 16× PoE+ ports supporting up to 30W each, this managed switch simplifies the deployment of wireless access points, IP surveillance cameras, VoIP phones and other compatible network devices. Its 500W shared PoE budget helps minimise the need for separate power adapters and dedicated electrical cabling.

Four 1/10Gbps SFP+ slots provide high-speed fibre uplink connectivity, while physical stacking of up to four compatible switches supports network expansion, simplified administration and improved network resilience.

With Static Routing, RIP, OSPF, DHCP Server and DHCP Relay, the SG5428XMPP delivers essential Layer 3 functionality for segmented and growing business networks. Security technologies including ACLs, IEEE 802.1X, Dynamic ARP Inspection and DoS protection help administrators maintain greater control over network access.

Integration with Omada Software Defined Networking (SDN) enables centralised configuration, monitoring and cloud-based network management using compatible Omada controllers. Standalone administration is also available through the web interface, CLI, SNMP and RMON.

Main Features and Benefits

24 Gigabit PoE Ports with a 500W Power Budget

The SG5428XMPP provides 24 Gigabit RJ45 ports supporting standards-based Power over Ethernet.

• 8× Gigabit PoE++ ports: IEEE 802.3af/at/bt support, delivering up to 90W per port.

• 16× Gigabit PoE+ ports: IEEE 802.3af/at support, delivering up to 30W per port.

• 500W shared PoE budget: Distribute power across compatible connected network devices.

• Fast PoE: Retains configured PoE settings and accelerates power delivery following a restart.

• Perpetual PoE: Maintains PoE power to connected devices during supported switch reboot operations.

These capabilities help organisations simplify network installations and reduce reliance on individual power supplies.

Four High-Speed 10G SFP+ Uplink Slots

Four 1/10Gbps SFP+ slots provide high-bandwidth connectivity for connecting aggregation switches, servers, core network infrastructure and other compatible equipment.

With a switching capacity of 128Gbps and a packet forwarding rate of 95.23Mpps, the SG5428XMPP is designed to handle demanding business network traffic.

Physical Stacking for Network Scalability

The SG5428XMPP supports physical stacking of up to four compatible units using 10G SFP+ ports.

With stacking bandwidth of up to 80Gbps, this functionality enables administrators to expand network port capacity while supporting simplified stack management and network redundancy.

Advanced Lite Layer 3 Routing

Integrated Layer 3 capabilities give network administrators greater flexibility when designing routed and segmented networks.

Supported capabilities include Static IPv4/IPv6 Routing, RIP v1/v2, OSPF v2/v3, DHCP Server, DHCP Relay, IP interfaces and ARP management.

These functions help facilitate inter-network communication and support structured business network deployment.

Comprehensive Network Security

The SG5428XMPP includes security mechanisms designed to control access, reduce network risks and protect critical network infrastructure.

Security capabilities include IPv4/IPv6 access control lists, port security, IEEE 802.1X authentication, MAC Authentication Bypass, Dynamic ARP Inspection, DHCP Snooping, IP-MAC-Port Binding, IPv4/IPv6 Source Guard and DoS defence.

Secure management is supported through HTTPS and SSHv2.

Ethernet Ring Protection Switching

Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (ERPS) supports rapid network recovery in compatible ring topologies, helping minimise service interruption when a network link fails.

This is particularly useful for networks where connectivity availability and infrastructure resilience are important.

Centralised Omada Cloud Management

The SG5428XMPP integrates with the Omada SDN ecosystem for centralised network configuration and monitoring.

Supported management options include Omada Hardware Controller, Omada Software Controller and Omada Cloud-Based Controller.

With the appropriate controller, administrators can access centralised monitoring, device discovery, configuration management, event notifications and firmware management. Zero-Touch Provisioning requires a supported Omada Cloud-Based Controller.

Flexible Standalone Network Administration

For installations without an Omada controller, the switch supports standalone management through its web-based interface, command-line interface, SNMP and RMON.

This makes the SG5428XMPP suitable for both centrally managed Omada deployments and traditional managed Ethernet networks.

Power and Environmental Specifications

Important technical notes: The 500W PoE budget is shared across connected devices and laboratory-tested; actual available power may vary depending on connected equipment and environmental conditions. Although individual PoE++ ports support up to 90W, the switch cannot deliver maximum power simultaneously through every PoE port. Only one compatible 10G RJ45 SFP+ copper module may be installed at a time. Specifications and available features should be checked against the supplied hardware version and firmware.
